It is only fair that the man or woman who puts money into one of these associations should be specific ally informed how much of a membership charge is made in his or her account In the past year, numerous loan associations have sprung up in Seattle and elsewhere in the state Whether they are sound financially or not, The Star expresses no opinion, They are supposed to be under state supervision, The state auditor is supposed to have a check on their operations But the “membership fee” has caused hardship and trouble for investors, regardless of the financial stand ind of these companies. A man invests $100 in one of these associations If he is charged $20 for membership, as some of these associations do, it would be two years, even at 10 per cent interest, before he would be able to get back his original investment. It would be a longer period be- fore he would begin to earn any money. These facts should be laid before the investor. He is entitled to know them, and if the information is withheld from him, if the proposition is not explained to him, he is not getting a square deal The proposed law places a maximum of $10 as the membership fee. The legislature might well consider this, too, as possibly a necessary step to prevent “fly by night” building and loan associations There certainly cannot be any objection to the sep- arate receipt clause, which would effectively give the investor notice that he is being charged a membership fee.
